Produces perspective or contour plot views of an estimated surface corresponding smooths over two or more dimensions. Alternatively plots “slices” of the estimated surface or estimated second derivative surface with one of its arguments fixed. Corresponding twice-standard error “Bayesian” confidence bands are constructed using the method in Marra and Wood (2012). See the details.

Simply produces a plot
The confidence bands used when plotting slices of the estimated surface or second derivative surface are the ones proposed in Marra and Wood (2012). These are a generalization of the "Bayesian" intervals of Wahba (1983) with an adjustment for the uncertainty about the model intercept. The estimated covariance matrix of the model parameters is obtained from assuming a particular Bayesian model on the parameters.
